The greatest common factor of 115/48,800/207 = [GCF of 115,800]/[LCM of 48,207]= 5/3312
Therefore, the GCF of 115/48,800/207 is 5/3312.
To find the highest common factor of 115,800, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 115 are 1, 5, 23, 115
The factors of 800 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, 80, 100, 160, 200, 400, 800
The HCF of 115,800 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 115,800
5 | 115, 800 |
23, 160 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 115
:1,5,23,115
Now, list down the factors of 800
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,80,100,160,200,400,800
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 115,800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 115,800 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,207
3 | 48, 207 |
16, 69 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 16 x 69 = 3312
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/3312
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 115/48,800/207 is 5/3312
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 48,207 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,207) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,207) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(48,207) = ( 48 × 207 ) / 3
LCM(48,207) = 9936 / 3
LCM(48,207) = 3312
